What are Silverfish?

Have you ever wondered that when you start a book you found a little and white creature nestled in between the pages? That is a silverfish. Commonly found in old boxes, drawers and bookshelves, these animals are known to be destructive pests. Silverfish feed on carbohydrates, particularly sugars and starches. They have voracious feeding habits, oftentimes ruining papers, clothes and wallpaper.

Silverfish have been existing for a number of years, coexisting with historical animals. Which means, bugs like them have been walking round the earth for 400 million years! They are little, wingless insects, together with the fish-like appearance and give off an impression of being whitish-grey in color. They are benign and there’s been no known proof that they cause illnesses or inflict poison, however, then they are viewed as a pest in homes and organisations.

Their presence is sometimes undetected and homeowners often transport silverfish indoors unknowingly. Once inside, they find a safe dark and damp place where they can nestle and strain, and over time spread everywhere. These pests will enter homes through foundation cracks, torn screens, or gaps around doors. Leaving dirty dishes out in the open will also lure silverfish inside. They are not known to spread illnesses but they are capable of triggering allergic reactions in some people and further damage properties. Their presence sometimes attracts carpet beetles and causes unease due to their strange appearance.
